These chemicals have been known to produce extremely toxic byproducts, including dioxins and hexachlorobenzenes.

Exposure to these byproducts has been linked to increased cases in cancer and blood diseases, especially Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and leukemia.

According to a Canadian Department of National Defence document acquired through the Access to Information Act, over 3.2 million liters and kilograms of chemical defoliants were used at the base between the years 1956 to 1984.
